Mixed Match vs Royal North Devon

Last year the best efforts of RND and St Enodoc to stage this annual mixed match were twice washed away with rains of Biblical proportions. Yesterday the match was blessed with sunshine, sunshine and more sunshine. The links were at their very best and in a condition to be expected of a course in the Top 100 in the World.

Our good friends and neighbours from Northam Burrows celebrate the 150th anniversary of the founding of their club this year and we congratulate them on that. An away win for their Mixed Team would no doubt have had added a little to these celebrations but this was not to be as home advantage and it must be said some good form enabled Keith Willmott's boys and girls to romp home by 9 points to 3.
